As far as streamlined Bikes go, John, that BSA(?) looks like it was streamlined to go really fast...in reverse! LOL

And Doug, I don't know what to say about your submission.
Thats an odd one, isn't it?!
LOL
I sure wouldn't call it streamlined! haha

...

Gary...I just noticed your sig.
Not sure why I never noticed it before.
or if I did, why I have forgotten it.
But it gave me such a smile.
Only a couple of days ago, I was thinking about a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster.
Wondering if i could make one!
haha

I'm a big Douglas Adams fan myself...have a small collection of books.
Proud of my first edition of the "Trilogy in Four Parts".
I just downloaded the big audio set of all his books.
I used to have an audio book of Hitchhiker's Guide read by Douglas Adams himself.
Was on the computer...but I seem to have lost it...maybe in the big harddrive crash a few years back.

anyway, sorry for the sidetrack

Vincent! yes...I knew that.
I couldn't for the life of me remember the name.
And the only other British bike i could think of at that moment was a BSA.
LOL
